About Vendor 

Learn more about this vendor for your event.

Hello! My name is Marcus and I am a professional opera, rock, and classical vocalist. I have sung for major sporting events and at some of the finest opera houses around the world. I have performed in dive bars with rock bands, and have had the pleasure of singing countless custom, unique performances for clients in backyards, living rooms, and front porches. No event is too large or too small. Please check out my videos for a small sample of my voice and give me a call! I look forward to hearing from you! Services: Weddings Parties Corporate Events Birthdays Graduations Private Events Holiday Parties Front man for bands Operas Symphony and more! Here is a brief summary of my professional experience and qualifications: In 2000, I made my professional debut as a chorus member in Seattle Opera's production of Richard Wagner's epic Ring cycle. I spent the next five years as a member of Seattle Opera's chorus, where I performed in dozens of productions; before auditioning, and being accepted into, Seattle Opera's prestigious Young Artist training program for professional singers. During my two years in the program, I deeply studied a number of lead and supporting roles, before making my international debut with Greek National Opera in 2008; where I sang the lead tenor role of Rinuccio, in Puccini's Gianni Schicchi. Since that time, I have had the privilege of participating in operas and concerts all around the world with companies such as Seattle Opera, Pacific Northwest Ballet, Opera Idaho, Portland Opera, New Orleans Opera, Opera Théâtre de Rimouski, Opera Oviedo, Qatar Philharmonic Orchestra, and many more. In addition to my opera credits, I have had multiple crossover opportunities. Notable among those was being accompanied onstage by multiple-Grammy award winner, David Foster, at the Seattle Museum of Flight's 50th Anniversary gala; where at one point I also sang alongside such greats as Kenny G and Kenneth “Babyface” Edmonds. I also spent 15 years as a regular National Anthem singer for the Seattle Mariners and Seattle Seahawks, and I made my Detroit Tigers debut in April of 2018. Lastly, I have performed at countless private events, charity functions, and venues; including multiple appearances as a soloist on New Year's Eve at the world-renowned Herb Farm restaurant in Woodinville, WA; private events for the Quilceda Creek winery in Washington State; as well as multiple appearances as a soloist for the United Cerebral Palsy Foundation, and the Festival of Trees events supporting Children's Hospital in Seattle, WA. Locally, I have performed at Veritas in Jackson, Zou Zous Cafe in Chelsea, and The Cucina Lab in Troy. Looking forward to hearing from you! Marcus

Review by Kristina P.

Wedding CeremonyReviewed on September 11, 2022From Lansing, MI

Marcus learned several new songs just for our wedding and we couldn’t be happier. The entire crowd was in awe of his performance along with the duets with his wife. If you want to impress your crowd, book Marcus! I promise you, he won’t disappoint.

Birthday Party (Adult)Reviewed on August 11, 2022From Canton, MI

Marcus was absolutely amazing he can sing such a wide variety of music. Marcus took the time to contact me before the event and go over my expectations and a play list. Marcus made my mom’s birthday so special and unforgettable. He is not only an incredible singer he is also an incredible person. I’m so grateful for Marcus and thank you to BASH for giving artist’s a platform to display their talents.
